a v THE COURT-HOUSE, What tho Board of Public Works Will Do. ¥} afss They Intend to Have Another of Theso Conferonces To-Day. Hr, Egan Does Not Look on Tllley’s Now Plan with Favor, And Thinks the Result Will Bo an Arohl- tootural Monstrosity. Tilloy Takes Things Easlly, and Hol's Oul the OlivesBranch, A Glance at Contractor Harms, The action of the Common Council, which wonted Tilley's compromiss plan Thuraday plght, waa very favorably commentod on by peo- plo generally yesterday, nad looked upon as end- ing at Iaat what{t soomed might have proven an everlasling muddle, It was generally supposed that, as tho County Board hind sigoified lts will- ingness to moot tho Council Lalt way, and bad gone on to build despito & contract proviously existing botweon tho city and county for build- ing tho new Conrl-1fouse and City-Hall on a {oint plam, thoy would stretch forth tho olive ‘branch as a token of peaco. But how changed geoms the scens, now tbat the Coun- ¢ll has dono the County Board's tldding. Instead of quletly acquioscing fn the matter, thoy now threnten to throw down the gauntlot,—that [s, s number of the Commission- erado,—and say thoy will not agree to the Coun« cil'a action, and will send in & communication to that effect to tho noxt meeting of tho Connctl, ffonday evening, if ono can be passed by the Dounty Doard, as thoy clalm that the paesago of Hildreth's resolution was & proceeding altogeth. oz tao dictatorial to bo quietly saquieacod In. . ALDERMANIG VIEWS, To order to gain a cloar Insight into the gene- yal fecting_amang the mombers of the Council wn _tho subject, a ‘TRinuNE roporter yesterday bad en interviow with quilo s number. ‘Llhey stated simply thot Chlcago would pay ploven-twolfths of tho Court-Ilougo money anyhow, and they could not seo why itd citizena sbould not have the chiof mavin tho matter aa regards tho ntyle of tho bnildini. Tlhay praived Tilley and bis plavs, credited him with having bu:kgoun, and 83ld thoy would sland by hum, as Lo had now conformed In every rospact to the proposcd compromiso, and thoy could not sos on what grounds this matter sbould bo any longer dolayed. fTowaver, they eald, if tho County Board did not agreo to tlio action of the Council in the promises and wont on ta build on Lgan's old th, tho matter would bo brought into sourt, and tho work dolayod for yoars, per- haps, They wets perfectly willing thnt the Doard of Public Worka should grant overything proper o the county, and andeavor to bring tio srchiitects togethes and smooth over all diffor~ JnoeN. 1t was also very ovident that MB. EOAX was not satlsfied with the Council’s action, Io bad rather exvocted that his quln, approvad by the Jolnt Committecs and ard of Public Works, woutd bo adopted, or, failing In this, iat & third architect would bs appointed and Ibas tho matsor sttled by # majority, The city would nob incur tho nocossary expouss, and, besldee, tha Council thought that under tho cir- samatances & $37,500 nonentity waa 1ot nocos- ary. Ysstorday afternoon a Triounz reporter had 0 interview with the membors of THE DOARD OF PUDLIC WORRS, Theso gantlemen expreaied thomaolves as por- lectly matisflod with the action of the Couscil, snd thought it was perfoctily fair and laudable, Bala Mr, Piindivillo, *We sball advertiao fo proposals as s00u aa we can.' 5 R.—How soon wi!l that bo? Mr, P.—Waoll, wo will havo to await the action »f tho Mayor firat, and seo if ho approves the to30lution. R.—Then how soon after wonld you advertiso for [)rmf)mnlu ? Br. P,—As roon as wo get the specifleations. R.—Do you understand that tho action of the Counal lait the plaos in the hands of the Moard tor adoption and exccutlon ? Mr, P.—I doo't underatand that tho plana- have boen left fo tha hands of tho Board, but wa will get thie architocts togother, parhaps, to- morraw, and oadoavor to get them to jibe their ians, t A R.—Will you advortise for proposals for the coutract for tLo foundation assoon as Alr, Tilley gouds in bis specifications ? Mr, P.—I dou't think that wo shall, We will first get a detalled esti- mate of the plans from hoth architects on the two plans, and thon givo them to exports for revision, if tho Council will give us the authority, in order to have {he exponso of the bull\img Lopt an low as pozajble, . —Yhon nothlog will bo dono for somo timo? r, P.—0, no. It will tako somo weoks be- foro the detatled plans will bo finiahod. This ended tha interview hora, XOAN'S FEELINGB—DI 13 AQITATED, The reportor noxt catled upon Alr, Egan, who had bern out to tho Ineano Asylum neatly alt dnr. That gontloman folt rather delicate about being interviewed, stating that he would rather nat bo bronght into print spain, “fowever,” he smd, *“Tie Trmuse has always glven mo 6 fair hoaring, and I will give you my candid apinton of last night'a action of tho Board of Aldermen.," The raportor then oponod as follows : R.~Waa the compromiso adopted ns you had desired ? s C.—The plan put forward o8 a compromizo a simply no compromise at ail, R.—Why not? E.—Listen, and I'll tell you. As I understand the torm ‘‘compromlse,” it moans somethin, which would Liave overcoms all exlsting dlmcufi Lies in regard to the mattcr, aud would have provided for & harmonioua exterior throughout. R.—But is thers not harmouny of design? E.,—There must be hatmony of design, not to speak of unifosmity in tho severul facades, ~Jow do you oxplein tuat 2 T.—There must bo 4 A REVETITIGN OF CEDTAIN FEATURES, '. but not af all. Thero must alio be“a ualty of architacture in tho preciso school fn which “you we werking, R.—Will you ploaso oxplain that more fully, 30 that I can got at your meaning ? E.—Certaluly, oir, lloro, on LaSalla stroet (roluting toa disgram), it is contomplated 1o treat tho facades tu the * Enroka™ styla. That Is the most highly florid style of modern classio architecture. ‘Lo loave tho Clark strcot fzcado t ba' execute! ailer my orignal design would result in about tho” mame amount of barmony as would oxist botwosn tho now fa. cades of tho now Opora-Houso of Paris aud the old Grecian Templa of Minerva, if it wero restorod.

E.~Well, we flnd tbat the Randolph and Washington stroet facades are an fucongruous nixtoro of boihithe other dea—that is, La- 3alle and Olark strcets.

Ths Council eimply say to the County Board, ‘* Gentleman, acoapt this lan, becausa wo call [t s compromine plan,” al- hougb, of course, the Couucil could not be | noraut of the fact that the mombars of the County Board never saw it.

Bbe can nelther road nor write, nor even speak or understaud the English language, Ior fathor's namo waa Ksu-bee, who was & son of Tc-pen-no-bec, the principal Chief of tho DPoltawatomie tribe. This tribo was divided Into saveral banda or familics, one known as the Dorliand band, anothoras tho Pokagon. 2 . 1o October, 1332, a treaty wan mada botween the Pottawatomies of tho Stato of Indiaus and Bichigan Tarritory, nnder twhich Tozah roceived the southwest fractional quarter of fractioual Sec. b, 47, 15, Iyimg noar the moutn of tho Catumot River, and containing 126 7-100 acres.

Sho went to lariford, whaie Herrick, by his statemonts that the laod she owned in Cook Couuty was poor and maraby ; that tho titlo was bad ; and that it was not worth much, induced ber to give him a quit-claim dosd of the 126 acres abuve-inentioned, _ITs was also sided in bis alloged schiemo by tiwo Indinns, who sald bo apola true, and was pot a bad shito man, but whow Togah uow thinks wero paid by him to decoive Ler. I'ho considoration was €50 cash and a balanoo of §150 to be paid at somo future timo. Thir deed was given July 5, 1876, and acknowledged in Har:ford, Mich., aod the noxt day ot 11 a. m. it was filed in the Recorder's offico of Cook Connty, 1) miles dis- taut.

About threo wooks after tho deod was made her nopheyw, To-posty, received what was called = miortgage for $460 mada to ber.

AnAMH sald the provision In the Conetitntion of 1813 und ti:at of 1870 wero almost identicel, zad pro- idod for a tax in proportion to his, her, or its property. The law did not reqmire thas in fact property ehould be taxed in actual uniformity, but tho Conetitution required that tho faw passod Ly the Genoral Asnembty should bo such that If praperly esocuted tho result would e to mako the tax aniform. It never could bo so {o facs asloog ae the world stood. It would bo 1o objection that the result was not uniform, provided the law was constitatioual, and would promots uwiformity, It bal bLeen repealecly domded by the Supreme Court that courts would not interfore to reatrain tho collection of taxes axcept In very urgent canoy.
